Abstract

A system (100) including a system controller (104) configured to transmit a first amount of commands in order to produce a desired effect by a group of actuators (105) acting in combination. A system controller (104) configured to control a group of at least two actuators (105) in order to produce at least one combined effect, wherein the number of actuators (105) is greater than or equal to the number of effects. A system controller (104) configured to achieve independent and variable bandwidths or responses of the desired effects produced by the actuators (105) acting in combination.
